Abstract

Smart Grids are susceptible to devastating cyber-attacks, and defending against cyber-threats has become a principal issue among policymakers. Now is the time to consider how institutions might better coordinate to both prevent and respond to potential attacks. How should intelligence information from the Department of Homeland Security be incorporated into FERC and NERC's standard setting process? How should the government be organized to respond to cyber-attacks and who is ultimately in charge when there is a cybersecurity event on the grid?
